Congrats. It's nice to see the big guy done. Simply, well, woof. I gotta know, what kind of stresses are on this beast? I've found that the bigger I go, I think I'm pushing the limits of Lego shearing factors. How heavy is it? How transportable? (...)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
(...) Eric, this is a truly amazing mecha you've built here. I must say, when I saw the "bust" in L.A., I thought you were going to go in a different direction with the legs and lower part; but I love what you've done with it. Judging from the (...)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
It's finally done! WOW! Truly stunning! The amount of parts used in this model probably rivals that of many collections. The detail level is also quite high, and many parts are very nicely contoured. New elements are used wonderfully as well. Here's (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) Now witnes the firepower of this fully armed and operational battles station! Ok, so maybe this doesn't fit the case, but it is good to see the GG-Mech finally complete, and it is one hell of a beast. The whole thing is absolutely perfect, a (...)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
Eric, Like Chris, I thought you were headed in a completely different direction when I first saw the GG mech. I'm glad I was wrong! What's you've done with Gomgile simply has NO comparison in the mech world. Gomgile stands on it's own. So I have to (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
Man, it seems so many people are having trouble with signing in. Anyways . . . Beautiful work Eric. What I like about your work are the details. Details that you can sit and observe for minutes if not hours. This mech is no exception. I've always (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
Eric, You know you da man! GG is finally "done" ;-) Much more organic than RR and the Big Bot. There are so many things I like about her. I can't wait to see it IRL! Oh and my fav is how she chews like an old lady with no teeth :-D Simply (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
If ever there was LEGO art, this would be it. Absolutely freaking stunning. There isn't a spot on this beauty I don't like. Eric, this is by far the best thing I've seen from you. So very organic and "flowing" and stuff. I especially like the chest (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) artful fanciful style rather than practical and industrial. On a planet of cybernetic beings they would probably make their bodies ornate like this just to amuse themselves as existence can get kind of boring when you are immortal. They weld (...)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
Eric, I am going to miss seeing the GG take shape over the next six months.. how long was it, exactly, from gestation to creation? You could have honestly just left it at the head and it would be an amazing achievement. Then the torso, arms, feet, (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.sculpture)

		Re: Gomgile; The GG Mech, a Grey - Green Biomechanoid.
Eric, I am speechless, Wow, this is another masterpiece, what can I say but Wow? there are so many awesome parts to this baby, I think that the head has to be my favourite though, it's incredible, it is so life like, and menacing, This is yet (...)
